When it comes to the current overcapacity problem generally faced by the chemical industry, Gu Renfa’s views are unique: “The so-called large and small production capacity is a dynamic process, which is closely related to the economic situation. I don’t think there is such a thing as overcapacity, which is a market economy. As an enterprise, I think it is a good thing to face challenges, because the final test of the market is the survival of the fittest, and this depends on the customer’s perception of you.” Gu Renfa emphasized: “There is a market and there is a value for survival. .For our company, continuous improvement of product quality, reduction of cost and improvement of efficiency through strengthening management level are the competitive advantages we want to highlight.”
